Very slow typing input in search boxes?

[allthebestdreams]

Hi All

Over the past 1-2 months I have began to experience very long delays when typing in search boxes. Whenever I begin typing on youtube or facebook - there is a 3-8 second delay. Once the typing has caught up, it types as per normal. If I go to a different website and again begin typing; the delay kicks in again. However, if I type directly in the url field (or anywhere outside of the browser) there is no delay whatsoever. This happens in all browsers. When I exit Kaspersky; the issue goes away completely.

 

Is anybody else experiencing this issue? Will the next Kaspersky update address this?

After dealing with it for 2 months, the issue seems to have resolved itself. During this period I had updated both Windows & Kaspersky and still experienced problems, but after exiting Kaspersky and reopening/applying another update, I seem to be able to run Kaspersky without any lag whatsoever. I can say with certainty that the lag immediately disappeared once Kaspersky wasn’t running.

I had the same issue and this seemed to fix the issue for me right away.  You’re lucky, the search bar problem would sometimes stall for minutes for me...infuriating…

This might help some people as it worked for me:

 

Make sure you check your task manager's cpu usage during one of these hangs, you will see chrome/firefox & kasperky's usage spike.

If this is the case you need to disable 'traffic processing' in kasperky.

Settings → Additional → Network Settings → Uncheck “Inject scripts into web traffic to interact with web pages”.

I’d be curious what your setting looks like right now, if the “inject scripts” option is disabled and if so, if that’s why the issue improved for you

I will add that the problem did come back shortly after my last post, but I discovered that whenever the lag came back - I would simply close Kaspersky down (Exit) then immediately reopen. The problem would go away instantly. I still have the ‘Inject scripts...’ option still ticked. I haven’t had to do exit and reopen for at least a month now.

 

This fix totally makes sense - It always seemed to me that Kaspersky was interfering with typing - there was never an instance where it lagged when I was typing in the URL box or other Windows search fields. I had a feeling that others were experiencing this issue, but was surprised I couldn’t find any other Kaspersky users mentioning it. Turns out that many others didn’t realize it was Kaspersky and assumed it was their browser.

Honestly, it never even occurred to me that this was a Kapersky issue.  I just happened on the right terminology when doing a search, which pulled up Kapersky in the results...and then the light bulb went off. Up until that point, I was convinced it was a Chrome issue, i had disabled all extensions, reset the browser, uninstalled...reinstalled, so frustrating!

Thanks for posting this I was having the same issue, typing in the Youtube search box giving delays of 30 seconds or more. The unchecking of Inject Script seems to have fixed it, I’ll post back if it is still an issue

1. Try to reset browser cache.
2. Check the issue in other browsers.
3. If enable script inject option back then the issue persits?
4. Is Kaspersky Protection extension enabled in the browser. What version is it?

I sent a request to tech support. I'm averaging 23 seconds with delays in typing in a search box. I have tried the methods provided above but still a very long delay.

Started having this issue suddenly a few days ago - this fix resolved it for me.

Thanks.

Everyone Use the new Microsoft Edge it is chromium based so it has no lag in any thing and video quality is better than chrome.
